    SURGICAL TREATMENT FOR PATIENTS OF ELDERLY AND SENILE AGE WITH LOCALLY ADVANCED COLON CANCER.

    Vestnik khirurgii imeni I. I. Grekova·2018

    Area of Science:

    • Minimally Invasive Surgery
    • Surgical Techniques
    • Abdominal Surgery

    Context:

    • Laparoscopic splenectomy is an established procedure for various spleen pathologies.
    • Traditional surgical access methods can present challenges in visualization and complication rates.
    • Lateral access offers a potentially advantageous approach for laparoscopic splenectomy.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the technique and outcomes of laparoscopic splenectomy utilizing lateral access.
    • To evaluate the feasibility and safety of lateral access for splenectomy in patients with spleen pathology and trauma.
    • To highlight the benefits of lateral access compared to conventional methods.

    Summary:

    • A study of 35 patients (30 with spleen pathology, 5 with abdominal trauma) undergoing laparoscopic splenectomy via lateral access.
    • Successful completion rate of 90% was achieved with careful patient selection based on spleen condition and disease severity.
    • Lateral access demonstrated improved convenience, enhanced visualization, and reduced risk of injury to adjacent organs.

    Impact:

    • Lateral access laparoscopic splenectomy is a viable and effective surgical option.
    • The technique leads to fewer complications and conversions to open surgery.
    • Improved surgical outcomes and patient safety in splenectomy procedures.
